Hi all,

I'm just after some opinions of what turbo's (read low mounts that bolt to stock manifolds) would be best for me. My motor is freshly built with all the good stuff, and just in the process of getting the head ported and installing some cams (still undecided, need suggestions as to what would work best)

I want 700awhp @ 2bar max and i was thinking either the HKS GT-RS or Trust T618Z, redline is set at 7500. What are peoples experiences with these turbo's, and what are their characterisitics i.e when do they come onto boost, how much can they flow @ what boost etc. Also the car's being set-up for track & hill climbs, so i require half decent response.

It'd be ideal if someone could suggest what turbo and cam combo will be best for my motor and power goal.

cheers

Shane

either are a really big twin combo, i hope you dont expect them to come on anytime soon. do a search for twin GT-RS's i think 600HP has them and i think OZGTR97V tried them as well (said too big for 2.6, more like 2.8 stroker).

twin 2530s will give you good response and and really good midrange, plently for hill climbs etc. 700awhp is silly for hillclimbs. for hillclimbs boost repsonse is very very important, running large twin trust's or gt-rs's isn't going to cut it, far too laggy.

i would suggest focusing more on midrange and average power

yeah i saw the 3 litre later on. see if you can find out what a/r the gt-rs's are and aim a tiny bit lower than that perhaps? you should defintely do the split dumps/fronts (trust ones i think are the bee's knee's) and ensure a big exhaust from the cats back

Its GT-RS... and i remember you saying a while back you refused to pay the HKS pricetag... so...

Not sure how your gonna get yourself outta that McPickle.

I got ya on that one :)

But yeah, its GT-RS's for you Shane. There really isnt an option.

Even with a 26/30, over 500rwkw is not going to be your friend for hillclimbs ;)

Track, it should be alright, but you've still got another 20k to spend on brakes and suspension to get the power to the ground :P

Your basically trying to do what the Racepace GTR has done IMO, and that is a 6 figure car

already have hks split dumps, and hks tuned length front pipes, and 3.5inch cat back

thanks for the feedback :sleep:

hahah i know, and i still havnt changed my mind, its just easier to say hks gt-rs instead of the garrett spiel :)

So then the t618z arent in the same game as the gt-rs? i saw a dyno graph from an autobarn, showing the t618z on a built motor (more than likely stroker) with 280 10.8 cams, and made 300kw @ 4750 and 516kw @ 7500 (or near on). That's probably the figures id like, but if the gt-rs can make the same, and a bit earlier, thatd be the choice. what do you think?

All of this work so far has been out of my own pocket, so i'll be needing to source some form of 'sponsorship' down the track, for when the really expensive stuff breaks :P

Have you thought about Garrett 2860R -10's (707160-10) ? Spec-wise they appear to be very similar to the GT-RS's.

thanks for the link, great site! yep they are the ones id be going if i were to go the 'gt-rs' route.

Heres that dyno graph i mentioned earlier

post-20917-1167948005.jpg

have you thought about things like brakes, suspension, diff, gearbox, transfer case, etc etc all the drivetrain parts? as running 500awkw on stock gtr running gear thats 16 years old is a bit of a concern.

You need bridged mainfolds for those size low mounts. Dirtgarge had or have GT-RS

If that is a graph of there car they had GT-RS turbos last time i heard.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
